Method for making a layered frozen confectionary product

A method for manufacturing a frozen confectionery product using an apparatus, the apparatus comprising:

• a nozzle comprising a frozen confectionery passage with one inlet port and a single outlet port, the single outlet port having an elongated cross-section, two coating passages with two coating inlet ports and two corresponding coating outlet ports, each of the two corresponding coating outlet ports having an elongated cross-section,
• the one inlet port and the single outlet port are joined by a funnel passage expanding at an angle of at least 35-25° relative to a flow direction in the nozzle and a land length passage having walls parallel to the flow direction of the nozzle, and
• the two corresponding coating outlet ports are positioned on inside walls of the land length passage upstream of the single outlet port and extends parallel to the single outlet port to form an annular or helical coating layer in or on the frozen confectionery product upon rotation of the nozzle and a container with respect to one another,
• wherein the method comprises:
• simultaneously extruding a frozen confectionery with inclusions having a size of 6-12 mm and coating material with or without inclusions through the single outlet port and the two corresponding coating outlet ports, respectively, of the apparatus into the container while the nozzle and the container are rotated with respect to one other at a speed to make at least 3 layers, and
• increasing the distance between the nozzle and the container by a vertical movement of one of the container or the nozzle.
